Liverpool use a different logo for digital, though, don't they?

The 1874/2024 dates for be removed in our annual badge redesign and it'd look perfect.I like top left, but without the dates and star.Same here...Although bottom middle could also be an option...

Or the Man Utd crest that is thought to be one of the strongest pieces of branding in the world*. There are multiple crests that are more complicated than any of those, or our circle version. Otherwise, we are going down another of the strongest pieces of branding in the world*, with the New York Yankees style route. But then again, that is why there are branding instructions, to give a minimum scale size, amongst many other stipulations...*may have changed but I remember reading about it in a design magazine a few years ago when I was working within the sports industry as a designer...

Both would still be instantly recognisable though. And thats the point.I cant say what will happen for sure, or what did happen previously, but in my experience, there should be complex brand instructions from any reputable design company for any brand assets they create. From the previous circular design, we were briefly shown some of those instructions in some of the mock ups. But they were not the brand instructions. Fans would never really see those as the designer would...
I would like the middle one first row or the first one second row.It would standout more on the jersey with a golden lion which is the correct colour of a lion as well.It's most likely a shield shape badge so will be interesting what the final one will come as.I do think that star is something to be proud of and is symbolic to all football clubs in recognition to winning so that ideally should be kept and proudly on display.Up The Villa!

The star isn't the same as the Cup win. We don't have it scrubbed from our honours list if we remove the star from the crest. Do you think MU, Liverpool and Chelsea aren't proud of their European Cups? It is pompous for several reasons. The fact of the matter is it just isn't common practice in England to do this and by doing it we make ourselves look insecure (and indirectly we are suaing we won't win it again, which is the wrong fucking attitude if you want to be successful). If our fans truly believed we are a big club they would reject this star.
